THE LOST SENSATION

The current western attitude towards pain has transitioned into a wholly negative realm. No longer withdrawing our hand from the hot stove, but avoiding the stove entirely. My senior thesis delved through the evolutionary, historical, spiritual, and the eventual commoditization of pain from the medical industry. Offering to remove our dull facade and psychological stigma and to recognize pain as a necessary human sensation.
